Travis makes it seem like people are expecting a B12 Championship next year. I hate when people exagerate(sp) other people's thoughts in order to argue about them.

Ummm.....I was expecting 38-0 and a title coming to Ames, kicking off the Mayor's reign for the next 30 years. :jimlad:
After watching this years team improvement with this coaching staff, adding the talent next season I think finishing in the top 3 in the conference is not out of the question (only 10 teams now). KU, Texas adn Mizzou will be tough teams.
I'm thinking a more realistic expection is the Men's Basketball breaking the Lady Huskies' winning record.Quote:

We won't have to worry about over hyping next years ISU basketball team because Travis, Randy Peterson, Rick Brown, etc. will offer plenty of pessimism for us. I think they're talking so much about Iowa State, so they don't have to talk about iowa's big 10 loss and iowa's 11 and 20 season.
Comments about ISU from a guy who calls himself huskerhawkeye? I'm not sure why people would pay attention to him when he is talking about Iowa State sports.

Its hard to say as I have no idea how good the rest of the Big 12 is projected to be next year, but I see us finishing somehwere between 1-10.
I thought last year would be a GREAT year, and because of that I will hold of judgment until I see them play against good competition next year...
Fred will be the first coach to 1,000 wins.
Fred will be the first coach to 5000 wins LOL............
Look guys at ISU we need to finish in the TOP-HALF of the big 12 every year....
Ultimate Goal: "Iowa State needs to go to the NCAA tournament every year to move this (basketball) program forward"....quoting Larry Eustacy
If FreddieBall can do what LE did at ISU I will die a happy man !!!
You say that like there's something wrong with that? :wink:Quote:
